BACKGROUND
[0003] With development of mobile phone camera technologies, for consumer electronic products
such as a mobile phone, a tablet, a notebook computer, and a wearable camera, image
shooting effects and requirements are expected to be as high as those of single-lens
reflex cameras, and an image shooting function effect has gradually become an important
feature of a terminal electronic device and one of main indicators for evaluating
performance of the terminal electronic device.
[0004] A mobile phone is used as an example of a current electronic device. An image shooting
module of the mobile phone usually includes a lens and a drive motor. The drive motor
is a carrier for implementing zooming and focusing in the image shooting module. The
lens is usually fastened to the drive motor. Under a driving force generated by the
drive motor, the lens moves to a specified position, to implement zooming and focusing
at different zoom rates. However, when the image shooting module includes a plurality
of movable lens groups to meet a zoom mode with higher shooting quality, for example,
a continuous zoom mode, an existing drive structure is complex, which affects a movement
speed and precision of a lens, and reduces a zoom effect.
SUMMARY
[0005] This application provides an image shooting module, a motor structure, and an electronic
device, to resolve a problem that a movement speed and precision of a lens are affected
and a shooting effect is reduced due to a complex drive structure in an existing image
shooting module.
[0006] A first aspect of embodiments of this application provides an image shooting module,
including a motor structure and an image shooting assembly. The motor structure includes
a base, a drive apparatus, and a bearer, the drive apparatus is disposed on the base,
and the bearer is connected to the drive apparatus.
[0007] The image shooting assembly includes a lens and a lens guide rod. The lens guide
rod is disposed on the base, the lens is slidably connected to the lens guide rod,
and the lens is disposed on the bearer.
[0008] In this way, when the drive apparatus drives the bearer to move, the lens can be
driven to move along the lens guide rod, to implement zooming or focusing of the lens.
Compared with an existing image shooting assembly, in the image shooting assembly
in this embodiment, the drive apparatus is connected to the bearer, the lens is disposed
on the bearer, and the lens moves along the lens guide rod under action of the drive
apparatus. It may also be understood that the drive apparatus is disposed on the lens,
so that the drive apparatus and the lens are coupled as a whole, and the drive apparatus
drives the lens to move along the lens guide rod. Compared with an existing motor
structure, in the motor structure, a guide rail for the bearer to move is not needed,
and a movement system of the lens is simplified, to effectively reduce friction in
sliding of the lens, and simplify the movement system of the lens in the image shooting
module. This improves a movement speed and precision of the lens, and helps improve
a shooting effect.
[0009] In addition, the image shooting module with a simplified movement system of the lens
has a simpler arrangement, better implementability, and lower costs.
[0010] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, there are a plurality of image
shooting assemblies, each image shooting assembly corresponds to one drive apparatus
and one bearer, and in two image shooting assemblies, a lens of one image shooting
assembly is slidably connected to a lens guide rod of the other image shooting assembly.
[0011] In this way, movement of a plurality of groups of lenses can be implemented, and
the movement system of the lens is simplified in the foregoing manner, to significantly
improve a movement speed and precision of the lens. For example, there may be two
image shooting assemblies, two drive apparatuses are disposed on the base of the motor
structure, the two drive apparatuses are respectively connected to bearing bases,
and one image shooting assembly is disposed on each bearing base.
[0012] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a first magnet is disposed on the
bearer, a second magnet is disposed on the lens, and the first magnet and the second
magnet attract each other
[0013] In this way, the lens can be disposed on the bearer through attraction between the
first magnet and the second magnet, to implement coupling between the image shooting
assembly and the drive apparatus, so that a movement reference manner of the drive
apparatus and the lens is normalized, the movement speed and precision of the lens
are improved. In a possible implementation of the first aspect, one of the bearer
and the lens is provided with a clamping part, the other one of the bearer and the
lens is provided with a clamping groove, and the clamping part and the clamping groove

[0014] In this way, the lens may be provided with the clamping part, and the bearer may
be provided with the clamping groove. The clamping part may implement positioning
and fit with the clamping groove, to implement a fit connection between the lens and
the bearer. In addition, fitting the clamping part and the clamping groove may facilitate
positioning of the lens and the bearer when the lens and the bearer are installed,
and facilitate assembly of the lens and the bearer.
[0015] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the drive apparatus includes a
drive coil, a first drive magnet, and a first magnetic shielding structure in a ring
shape.
[0016] A part of the first magnetic shielding structure passes through the center of the
drive coil, the first drive magnet is located in the first magnetic shielding structure
and is located on a side of the drive coil, magnetic induction lines of the first
drive magnet are perpendicular to the drive coil, the first drive magnet and the first
magnetic shielding structure are fastened to the bearer, and the drive coil is disposed
on the base.
[0017] In this way, a magnetic field exists at an end of the drive coil that is close to
the first drive magnet. In addition, after the drive coil is energized, an annular
current is formed, and an ampere force is generated in the magnetic field of the vertical
coil, the ampere force is used as a driving force to enable the first drive magnet
and the first magnetic shielding structure to reciprocally move through the drive
coil. The first drive magnet and the first magnetic shielding structure are fastened

be driven to move along a straight line relative to the base, and the lens on the
bearer is driven to move along the lens guide rod, to implement long-distance focusing,
zooming, or the like in the image shooting module.
[0018] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the drive apparatus further includes

of the second drive magnet are perpendicular to the drive coil, the magnetic induction
line of the first drive magnet and the magnetic induction line of the second drive
magnet are opposite in directions, and the second drive magnet and the second magnetic
shielding structure are fastened to the bearer.
[0020] A magnetic field is also generated at an end of the drive coil that is close to the
second drive magnet. After being energized, the drive coil forms an annular current,
to generate an ampere force in the magnetic field of the vertical coil. The ampere
force may also be used as a driving force. Directions of magnetic poles of the first
drive magnet and the second drive magnet may be controlled, so that the magnetic induction
lines of the first drive magnet and the second drive magnet are opposite in directions.
In this way, ampere forces in a same direction are generated on two sides of the drive
coil as a driving force, to drive the bearer to move along a straight line. This effectively

and precision of the lens.
[0021] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the motor structure further includes
a position detection apparatus, and the position detection apparatus is configured
to detect a moving position of the bearer.
[0022] The position detection apparatus detects the moving position of the bearer, that
is, may detect a moving position of the lens, to determine how the lens is to move
or whether the lens has moved to a required position, so as to implement closed-loop
control on the motor structure.
[0023] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the position detection apparatus
includes a detection component and a sensing magnet. The sensing magnet is disposed
on the bearer, the detection component is disposed on the base, and the detection
component is configured to detect a magnetic field of the sensing magnet.
[0024] When the drive apparatus drives the bearer to move, the sensing magnet also moves
along with the bearer. In this way, a distance between the sensing magnet and the
detection component changes, and the magnetic field of the sensing magnet detected
by the detection component also changes. Such change can be used to detect the moving
position of the bearer, to further detect the moving position of the lens.

[0026] The motor structure includes the base, the drive apparatus, and the bearer. The drive
apparatus is fastened to the base, the bearer is connected to the drive apparatus,
the bearer is configured to bear a camera of the image shooting assembly, and the
drive apparatus is configured to drive the lens to move along the lens guide rod of
the image shooting assembly, that is, the drive apparatus and the lens are coupled
as a whole by using the bearing base, and the drive apparatus drives the lens to move
along the lens guide rod, so that a guide rail for the bearer to move is not needed
and the motor structure is simplified. In this way, a movement system of the lens
is simplified, to improve a movement speed and precision of the lens, and improve
a shooting effect.
[0027] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, a guide rail is further included.
The guide rail is detachably disposed on the base, the bearer is slidably disposed
on the guide rail, and when the bearer bears the lens, the guide rail is detached
from the base.
[0028] That is, the guide rail for the bearer to slide may be disposed on the motor structure

and the lens is bore on the bearer, the guide rail may be detached from the base,
to simplify the movement system of the lens. When the motor structure does not bear
the lens, the motor structure includes the guide rail, and the drive apparatus may
drive the bearer to slide on the guide rail. In this way, movement performance of
the motor structure can be easily detected, and a driving effect of the motor structure
can be ensured.

The electronic device includes any one of the foregoing image shooting modules or
the foregoing motor structures.
[0030] The electronic device includes the image shooting module or the motor structure.
In the image shooting module and the motor structure, because a drive apparatus is
coupled to a lens, and the drive apparatus drives the lens to move along a lens guide
rod, a guide rail for a bearer to move is not needed, and a movement system of the
lens is simplified. This improves a movement speed and precision of the lens, helps
improve a shooting effect of the electronic device, and improves performance of the
electronic device.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
[0033] Terms used in implementations of this application are merely used to explain specific
embodiments of this application, but are not intended to limit this application. The
following describes implementations of embodiments of this application in detail with
reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] In recent years, an image shooting effect of electronic devices such as a smartphone
becomes an important factor that consumers consider for the smartphone, and also becomes
an important selling point for mobile phone manufacturers to be competitive in the
market. Therefore, performance of an image shooting module of a mobile phone becomes
increasingly important. A long-focus lens is popular among consumers because of an
excellent long-distance shooting effect. A mobile phone is used as an example. An
existing long-focus image shooting module of the mobile phone usually uses a periscope
architecture design. Compared with a fixed-focus long-focus lens, a continuous zoom
lens has a ZOOM lens group besides an AF focusing lens group. Two movable lens groups
are included, and consequently, an optical system of the entire module is more complex.
[0035] A drive motor is a carrier for implementing zooming and focusing in the image shooting
module. Driven by a thrust of the motor, the lens reaches a specified position as
the motor carrier moves, to implement zooming and focusing at different zoom rates.
A continuous zoom module includes more than one group of movable lens groups, and
a movement distance of a lens is larger, and a precision requirement is higher In
an existing image shooting module, a motor structure usually includes a drive apparatus,
a carrier, and a guide rail. The drive apparatus may drive the carrier to move on
the guide rail of the motor structure. A lens of the image shooting module is disposed
on the carrier, and the lens may be slidably disposed on a moving guide rail of the
lens. The drive apparatus may drive, by using the carrier, the lens to move along
the moving guide rail of the lens. However, when a plurality of lens groups need to
move, there are a plurality of guide rails in the motor structure, and the motor structure
becomes complex. As a result, a movement system of the lens in the entire image shooting
module is complex, and a movement speed and precision of the lens are affected, and
a shooting effect is reduced.
[0036] Based on the foregoing technical problem, embodiments of this application provide
an image shooting module, a motor structure, and an electronic device. In the image
shooting module, a drive apparatus is connected to a bearer, a lens is disposed on
the bearer, and the lens is slidably connected to a lens guide rod. When the drive
apparatus drives the bearer to move, the lens can be driven to move along the lens
guide rod, to implement focusing and zooming of the lens. That is, the drive apparatus
is disposed on the lens, so that the drive apparatus and the lens are coupled as a
whole. In addition, the drive apparatus drives the lens to move along the lens guide
rod, so that a guide rail for the bearer to move is not needed, friction in sliding
of the lens is reduced, and a movement system of the lens in the image shooting module
is simplified, to improve a movement speed and precision of the lens, and help improve
a shooting effect.
[0037] With reference to the accompanying drawings, the following describes in detail an
image shooting module, a motor structure, and an electronic device provided in embodiments
of this application.
[0038] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a structure of an image shooting module according
to an embodiment of this application.
[0039] As shown in FIG. 1, an embodiment of this application provides an image shooting
module 100, including a motor structure 10 and an image shooting assembly 20. The
motor structure 10 includes a base 11, a drive apparatus 12, and a bearer 13. The
drive apparatus 12 is disposed on the base 11, and the bearer 13 is connected to the
drive apparatus 12. In this way, a driving force generated by the drive apparatus
12 can drive the bearer 13 to move.
[0040] The image shooting assembly 20 includes a lens 21 and a lens guide rod 22. The lens
guide rod 22 is disposed on the base 11, the lens 21 is slidably connected to the
lens guide rod 22, and the lens 21 is disposed on the bearer 13. In this way, when
the drive apparatus 12 drives the bearer 13 to move, the lens 21 can be driven to
move along the lens guide rod 22, to implement zooming or focusing of the lens 21.
Compared with an existing image shooting assembly 20, in the image shooting assembly
20 in this embodiment, the drive apparatus 12 is connected to the bearer 13, the lens
21 is disposed on the bearer 13, and the lens 21 moves along the lens guide rod 22
under action of the drive apparatus 12. It may also be understood that the drive apparatus
12 is disposed on the lens 21, so that the drive apparatus 12 and the lens 21 are
coupled as a whole, and the drive apparatus 12 drives the lens 21 to move along the
lens guide rod 22. Compared with an existing motor structure 10, in the motor structure
10, a guide rail 14 for the bearer 13 to move is not needed, and a movement system
of the lens 21 is simplified, to effectively reduce friction in sliding of the lens
21, and simplify the movement system of the lens 21 in the image shooting module 100.
This improves a movement speed and precision of the lens 21, and helps improve a shooting
effect.
[0041] In addition, the image shooting module 100 with a simplified movement system of the
lens 21 has a simpler arrangement, better implementability, and lower costs.
[0042] There may be a plurality of image shooting assemblies 20, and each image shooting
assembly 20 is corresponding to one drive apparatus 12 and one bearer 13. That is,
one image shooting assembly 20 may be disposed on one bearer 13, and the image shooting
assembly 20 is driven by one drive apparatus 12. In this way, a plurality of groups
of lenses 21 can be moved.
[0043] In two image shooting assemblies 20, a lens 21 of one image shooting assembly 20
is slidably connected to a lens guide rod 22 of the other image shooting assembly
20, and one lens 21 is disposed on two lens guide rods 22 and moves along the two
lens guide rods 22. This helps improve movement stability the lens 21.
[0044] Specifically, refer to FIG. 1. Two image shooting assemblies 20 are included (refer
to FIG. 9): a first image shooting assembly and a second image shooting assembly.
The first image shooting assembly includes a first lens and a first lens guide rod,
and the second image shooting assembly includes a second lens and a second lens guide
rod. One end of the first lens is slidably connected to the first lens guide rod,
the other end of the first lens is slidably connected to the second lens guide rod,
and one end of the second lens is slidably connected to the second lens guide rod,
and the other end of the second lens is slidably connected to the first lens guide
rod. In this way, both the first lens and the second lens move along the first lens
guide rod and the second lens guide rod, to improve movement stability the first lens
and the second lens.
[0045] In addition, when there are a plurality of image shooting assemblies, that is, the
image shooting assemblies include a plurality of groups of lenses that need to be
moved, a movement system of the lens of the image shooting module is complex. However,
the image shooting module provided in this embodiment of this application can simplify
the movement system of the lens in the foregoing manner, to significantly improve
a movement speed and precision of the lens.
[0046] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the two image shooting assemblies 20 are used as
an example. Two drive apparatuses 12 are disposed on the base 11 of the motor structure
10, and the two drive apparatuses 12 are respectively connected to bearers 13. The
first lens is disposed on a first bearer, the second lens is disposed on a second
bearer, an end of the first lens is slidably connected to the first lens guide rod,
the other end of the first lens is slidably connected to the second lens guide rod,
and an end of the second lens is slidably connected to the second lens guide rod,
the other end of the second lens is slidably connected to the first lens guide rod.
Comparison is made with a case in which there is the guide rail 14 on the motor structure
10. Specifically, each guide rail 14 corresponds to one bearer 13. As shown in FIG.
7, the motor structure includes a first guide rail and a second guide rail, a first
bearer is slidably connected to the first guide rail, and a second bearer is slidably
connected to the second guide rail. After the motor structure 10 and an image shooting
assembly 20 are assembled, movement of a first lens is related to the first guide
rail, a first lens guide rod, a second lens guide rod, and the second guide rail.
Correspondingly, movement of a second lens is related to the second guide rail, the
second lens guide rod, the first lens guide rod, and the first guide rail. As a result,
a movement system of the lens is relatively complex.
[0047] However, in this embodiment of this application, the guide rail 14 connected to the
bearer in the motor structure 10 is not needed. In this way, after the motor structure
10 and the image shooting assembly 20 are assembled, a movement of the first lens
is related to the first lens guide rod and the second lens guide rod, and a movement
of the second lens is related to the second lens guide rod and the first lens guide
rod. This significantly reduces friction in sliding of the lens 21, simplifies a movement
system of the lens 21, and effectively improves a movement speed and precision of
the lens 21.
[0048] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of assembly of a bearer and a lens in an image shooting
module according to an embodiment of this application.
[0049] As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment of this application, a first magnet 131 is
disposed on the bearer 13, a second magnet 211 is disposed on the lens 21, and the
first magnet 131 and the second magnet 211 attract each other In this way, the lens
21 can be disposed on the bearer 13 through attraction between the first magnet 131
and the second magnet 211, to implement coupling between the image shooting assembly
20 and the drive apparatus 12, so that a movement reference manner of the drive apparatus
12 and the lens 21 is normalized, the movement speed and precision of the lens 21
are improved.
[0050] One of the bearer 13 and the lens 21 may be further provided with a clamping part,
and the other of the bearer 13 and the lens 21 may be provided with a clamping groove.
Specifically, in this embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG. 2, the lens
21 may be provided with the clamping part 212, and the bearer 13 may be provided with
the clamping groove 132. The clamping part 212 and the clamping groove 132 may implement
positioning fitting, to implement a fit connection between the lens 21 and the bearer
13. In addition, fitting the clamping part 212 and the clamping groove 132 may facilitate
positioning of the lens 21 and the bearer 13 when the lens 21 and the bearer 13 are
installed, and facilitate assembly of the lens 21 and the bearer 13.
[0051] Specifically, the clamping part 212 may be a protrusion formed on a side that is
of the lens 21 and that faces the bearer 13, and the clamping groove 132 may be a
groove formed on a side that is of the bearer 13 and that faces the lens 21. When
the lens 21 is disposed on the bearer 13 by using the first magnet 131, the second
magnet 211, the clamping part 212, and the clamping groove 132, the lens 21 and the
bearer 13 may be further secured by using an adhesive layer, to improve strength of
a connection between the lens 21 and the bearer 13, ensure stability of disposing
the lens 21, and help improve a shooting effect of the lens 21.
[0052] FIG. 3 is a schematic structural side view of an image shooting module according
to an embodiment of this application. Refer to FIG. 3. In this embodiment of this
application, the motor structure 10 further includes a position detection apparatus
15. The position detection apparatus 15 is configured to detect a moving position
of the bearer 13, that is, may detect a movement position of the lens 21, to determine
how the lens 21 is to move or whether the lens 21 has moved to a required position,
so as to implement closed-loop control on the motor structure 10.
[0053] Specifically, refer to FIG. 3, the position detection apparatus 15 may include a
detection component 151 and a sensing magnet 152. The sensing magnet 152 is disposed
on the bearer 13, the detection component 151 is disposed on the base 11, and the
detection component 151 is configured to detect a magnetic field of the sensing magnet
152. When the drive apparatus 12 drives the bearer 13 to move, the sensing magnet
152 also moves along with the bearer 13. In this way, a distance between the sensing
magnet 152 and the detection component 151 changes, and the magnetic field of the
sensing magnet 152 detected by the detection component 151 also changes. Such change
can be used to detect a moving position of the bearer 13, to further detect a moving
position of the lens 21.
[0054] In addition, the detection component 151 is disposed on the base 11, a drive coil
121 of the drive apparatus 12 may also be disposed on the base 11, and the sensing
magnet 152 is disposed on the bearing base. In this way, a part that needs to be powered
in the motor structure 10 is securely disposed on the base 11, and a moving magnetic
motor structure is formed, so that a structure form of the motor structure 10 tends
to be simple, and implementation difficulty of the motor structure 10 is reduced.
[0055] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a drive apparatus according to an
embodiment of this application. FIG. 5 is an enlarged diagram of a part of a drive
apparatus according to an embodiment of this application.
[0056] In this embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG. 4, the drive apparatus 12
includes the drive coil 121, a first drive magnet 122, and a first magnetic shielding
structure 123 of a ring shape. A part of the first magnetic shielding structure 123
passes through the center of the drive coil 121, and the first drive magnet 122 is
located in the first magnetic shielding structure 123 and located on a side of the
drive coil 121.
[0057] Refer to FIG. 5. The first drive magnet 122 may form, through a magnetizing effect,
magnetic induction lines (in a direction B in FIG. 5) that are perpendicular to an
extension direction of the drive coil 121 (that is, perpendicular to a surrounding
center line of the drive coil 121). In this way, a magnetic field exists at an end
of the drive coil 121 that is close to the first drive magnet 122. In addition, after
the drive coil 121 is energized, an annular current (in a direction I in FIG. 5) is
formed, and an ampere force is generated in the magnetic field of the vertical coil,
the ampere force is used as a driving force to enable the first drive magnet 122 and
the first magnetic shielding structure 123 to reciprocally move through the drive
coil 121. The first drive magnet 122 and the first magnetic shielding structure 123
are fastened to the bearer 13. The drive coil 121 is disposed on the base 11. In this
way, the bearer 13 can be driven to move along a straight line relative to the base
11, and the lens 21 on the bearer 13 is driven to move along the lens guide rod 22,
to implement long-distance focusing, zooming, or the like in the image shooting module
100.
[0058] A forming material of the magnetic shielding structure may be a material having excellent
magnetic conductivity. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of another structure of a drive
apparatus according to an embodiment of this application. As shown in FIG. 6, in this
embodiment of this application, the drive apparatus 12 may further include a second
magnetic shielding structure 125 parallel to the first magnetic shielding structure
123. The first magnetic shielding structure 123 and the second magnetic shielding
structure 125 may form a double-ring structure, and a part of the second magnetic
shielding structure 125 passes through the center of the drive coil 121. A second
drive magnet 124 is disposed in the second magnetic shielding structure 125. The second
drive magnet 124 forms magnetic induction lines perpendicular to the drive coil 121
through a magnetizing effect. A magnetic field is also generated at an end of the
drive coil 121 that is close to the second drive magnet 124. After being energized,
the drive coil 121 forms an annular current, to generate an ampere force in the magnetic
field of the vertical coil. The ampere force may also be used as a driving force.
Directions of magnetic poles of the first drive magnet 122 and the second drive magnet
124 may be controlled, so that the magnetic induction lines of the first drive magnet
122 and the second drive magnet 124 are opposite in directions. In this way, ampere
forces in a same direction are generated on two sides of the drive coil 121 as a driving
force, to drive the bearer 13 to move along a straight line. This effectively improves
a driving force of the drive apparatus 12, and helps improve a movement speed and
precision of the lens 21.
[0059] With reference to FIG. 1, the image shooting module 100 may further include a power
supply apparatus 16. The power supply apparatus 16 may be connected to the drive coil
121 to supply power to the drive coil 121.
